Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and using a customized hanging protocol for the display of medical images. The methods may include receiving an indication to create a first hanging step of the hanging protocol, displaying a workspace having a plurality of viewports for displaying medical images, and displaying a plurality of building blocks corresponding to different types of medical images. The method may also include receiving a selection of a first building block in the plurality of building blocks, wherein the first building block corresponds to a first type of medical image, and receiving an indication of a location in the workspace for the first building block to be placed. Based on the indication of the location in the workspace for the first building block, one or more of the plurality of viewports is filled with the first building block.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for predicting the reading time and/or reading complexity of a breast image. In aspects, a first set of data relating to the reading time of breast images may be collected from one or more data sources, such as image acquisition workstations, image review workstations, and healthcare professional profile data. The first set of data may be used to train a predictive model to predict/estimate an expected reading time and/or an expected reading complexity for various breast images. Subsequently, a second set of data comprising at least one breast image may be provided as input to the trained predictive model. The trained predictive model may output an estimated reading time and/or reading complexity for the breast image. The output of the trained predictive model may be used to prioritize mammographic studies or optimize the utilization of available time for radiologists.
